IT Home reports that BYD has opened Chinese preorders for the third-generation Tang, described by the outlet as a large five-seat flagship SUV. The reported preorder prices run from 225,000 to 260,000 yuan, with quoted CLTC electric range figures from 770 km to 850 km depending on version.
There is no confirmed European consequence in IT Home’s report. It covers a Chinese preorder, Chinese-market specifications and nationwide BYD Dynasty dealer arrivals; it does not report a European launch, price, homologation plan or delivery date.
The useful bit for a European owner is context. IT Home’s reported prices show how BYD is positioning a large flagship SUV in its home market before anyone starts assuming that a China-market price or range number will travel neatly to Europe.
What does the BYD Tang cost in China?
IT Home reports that the third-generation BYD Tang has opened for preorder in China at 225,000 yuan to 260,000 yuan, depending on drivetrain and version. The outlet lists an 850 km rear-wheel-drive laser version at 225,000 yuan, another 850 km rear-wheel-drive laser version at 240,000 yuan, and a 770 km all-wheel-drive version at 260,000 yuan.
According to IT Home, BYD is presenting the Tang as a large five-seat flagship SUV rather than as a budget family car. That matters more than trying to convert the Chinese preorder number into a European price that nobody has announced.
| Version reported by IT Home | Preorder price | Quoted CLTC range | Drivetrain |
|---|---|---|---|
| 850 km rear-wheel-drive laser version | 225,000 yuan | 850 km | Rear-wheel drive |
| 850 km rear-wheel-drive laser flagship version | 240,000 yuan | 850 km | Rear-wheel drive |
| 770 km all-wheel-drive version | 260,000 yuan | 770 km | All-wheel drive |
IT Home reports those figures as preorder information, not as a European price list. That is the boundary here.
What does the third-generation Tang include for the money?
IT Home reports that the third-generation Tang is more than five metres long, with a wheelbase close to three metres and a five-seat layout across the range. The outlet says the second row has 1,003 mm of legroom and a reclining backrest that reaches 130 degrees.
According to IT Home, the cabin equipment includes Nappa leather, ventilation, heating and ten-point independent massage for all four seats, plus a zero-gravity front passenger seat. IT Home also reports two screen layouts, including a 35.4-inch display for driving information and a 30-inch panoramic display for interaction and entertainment.
The storage figures are also very much flagship-SUV figures. IT Home reports a 205-litre front boot, a 910-litre rear boot that expands to 2,098 litres with the rear seats folded, and a 6.8-litre heated and cooled onboard refrigerator.
That is a lot of equipment to put beside the starting preorder price. But it is still Chinese-market equipment reported by IT Home, not a promise about what a future European Tang would receive.
Is the reported 850 km range useful outside China?
Not on its own. IT Home says the rear-wheel-drive Tang has a quoted CLTC range of up to 850 km, while the all-wheel-drive version is quoted at 770 km, and the outlet notes that CLTC is China’s light-duty vehicle test cycle.
On my BYD Han, real motorway range is around 300 km at an average close to 100 km/h, or around 250 km at 120 km/h. Those are my own numbers from driving a China-market BYD in Portugal, not numbers for the Tang. The point is simply that a quoted test-cycle range needs its test cycle attached to it.
That is why I would treat IT Home’s 770 km and 850 km figures as useful Chinese-market context, not as a prediction for a European motorway trip. My real BYD Han motorway range notes are exactly why I have become careful about range figures without driving conditions beside them.
What drivetrain and battery details does IT Home report?
IT Home reports that the third-generation Tang uses BYD’s second-generation Blade Battery and flash-charging technology. The outlet reports 300 kW for the rear-wheel-drive motor, while the all-wheel-drive version is listed with 515 kW of combined system output and a 0–100 km/h time of 4.3 seconds.
IT Home also reports a front double-wishbone and rear five-link independent suspension layout. It says official information describes a dual-chamber air suspension system, while adding that full specifications had not yet been published when preorders began.
That last qualification matters. IT Home reports that some configuration descriptions circulating through other channels differed on which versions would receive which suspension system, so the outlet says final specifications should be taken from the formal launch information.
Is the third-generation BYD Tang coming to Europe?
No European launch is confirmed in IT Home’s report. IT Home reports a Chinese preorder opening and says BYD Dynasty 4S dealers around China have begun receiving cars, but it does not report European availability, a European price, a launch date or a market-specific specification.
That does not mean a European version cannot exist later. It means there is nothing in this source that lets me say it will.
For now, the Chinese preorder price is useful because it shows the level at which BYD wants to place this SUV at home: large, five-seat, heavily equipped and clearly intended to sit near the flagship end of the range.
